    I'm from finland and my sister does this. She brings her hobbyhorses to school sometimes. She has a lot of friends who do this too, and it seems so fun. I've tried this myself too and been in two competitions with my sister. This is not a joke- over 10 000 people do this as their hobby. (there is about 5 million people in finland) This does take skill whoever says that anyone could do this. My sister practises almost everyday to jump higher and do well in dressage. And also, this brings people together! Can't you hear how everyone is cheering each other and beeing friendly? I think it's so cool to do what you love and not listen to the haters! 💖

This isn't considered an Equestrian sport because the horse is fake on a stick.. Girls aren't wearing boots or a hat and the right pants and shirt.. Sorry but this is far from an Equestrian sport..

    When my kids were younger, they loved hobbyhorses, and the homemade ones (made from a meter stick, a piece of baseboard, and some yarn) were ridden more than the store-bought ones!
    The kids in the video are using their creativity to make each hobbyhorse unique. They have fun collecting, trading, playing, and engaging in friendly competition. It's not something that requires a lot of money to participate, and the kids are active---also, riding a hobbyhorse can be done indoors. This is Finland; some days are too cold to play outside all day.

    I can kind of see the appeal. Sure, it's not as good as having a real horse, but some people can't afford real horses (let's face it, they're really expensive, especially the most beautiful ones), and so maybe this was the next best thing that they could do. This way, they can have any horse of any breed or color that they want, and the bridles aren't limited either, they can bling them out or do other decorations that you can't normally do with real stuff.

    Hi everyone! Just wanted to make some things clear here:
    These people take this hobby seriously. They practice for years, it's not easy! There is a big difference in playing with hobbyhorses and actually competing etc.
    Also, these people are not trying to replace real horses. Horse riding and hobbyhorsing are very different. Sure, maybe some of these people are allergic etc and have found this hobby that way but they all do it because hobbyhorsing itself is fun and challenging. It looks easy, but really isn't.
    Please don't be mean, I understand that for some people this hobby might seem silly and childish, when it's actually a great hobby among others and physically very challenging.
    I'm proud to be a finn and I'm proud of our hobby horse community❤

That was funny to me because it wasn’t an attack on the girl, but a tongue in cheek poke at the tragedies of live horse injuries. The interviews with the young ladies explaining how the sport makes them feel empowered were very heart warming. I hope they continue to enjoy this wholesome activity for generations to come!
